Mt Wycheproof has numerous accommodation and hospitality options which leaves no excuse to not make the races an entire weekend event.
As well as the action on the track the Elders Mt Wycheproof Cup Day caters for all with competitive Fashions on the Field, free childrens activities, great food outlets, bars and an even an art exhibition leading up to the event. In 2011 huge crowds descended on the beautiful Wycheproof weather for a wonderful afternoon of catching up with great friends.
